No goals so far but José Mourinho calls for patience with Real Madrid’s Yan Diomande
Real Madrid coach José Mourinho is urging patience with Yan Diomande, a World Cup standout who has yet to score for his new club after three substitute appearances. The 19-year-old Diomande joined Madrid from Leipzig for a reported 125 million euros ($146 million) earlier this month. In Madrid’s latest Spanish league win, the young player played little, appearing for 20, 15, or 30 minutes in the three matches.
Mourinho emphasized that Diomande works well, is humble, eager to learn, and listens to his teammates, and he should be given time to grow. The coach dismissed concerns over the transfer fee, instead highlighting Diomande's immense potential. Diomande impressed with 12 goals and nine assists in 33 Bundesliga appearances for Leipzig last season and shone during Ivory Coast's World Cup run before being eliminated by Norway in the round of 32.
